Did you believe, <br />The giving of the spectrum done... <br />Was created to provide your enjoyment only? <br />To satisfy the gratifying sense of flesh. <br />Until the escaping depth of breath, <br />Comes to quiet in cycles of death... <br />All that now and has lived, <br />Rushes into a silence that forgets <br />With buried experiences! <br /> <br />Here we are... <br />Placed within this festival of vision. <br />Given to partake and share, <br />This Cosmos... <br />Mystique le magnifique, n'est pas? Oui! <br />Et c'est si bon. <br /> <br />Traveling... <br />You and I, <br />Suspended in dimensions of life. <br />To sparkle in brilliant light. <br />Discovering, <br />As we gaze upon the stars and moon. <br />Sun bright give us life we live here... <br />On a sphere of Earth that allows a birthing, <br />Of our imaginations. <br />To dance and whisper sweet wishes, <br />Granted. <br /> <br />And it is so clear, <br />The works of God has spoiled our involvement. <br />To expect this spectrum ever evolving... <br />Will endure a disrespect of its greatness. <br /> <br />We are just but specks undetected... <br />Beyond this atmosphere. <br />Cloaked but evoking wonder. <br />And yet we wish to magnify the affects, <br />Of our infestation!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
